Once harvested, crops and livestock undergo processing, which involves manufacturing methods for creating consumable food products. These processes range from simple to complex, including the milling of grains, fermentation of dairy products, and the preparation of ready-to-eat meals. The final steps of food production involve packaging and distributing food to ensure it reaches consumers in good condition.
Improving Food Production
To enhance food production, various methods can be employed:
Crop Improvement: This involves selecting and breeding plants that can yield better harvests and are resistant to pests or diseases.
Adoption of Better Cultivation Methods: Modern agricultural techniques, such as precision farming and sustainable practices, help optimize crop yield.
